the source of all instability is pakistan. i think we need to encourage the afghan people to do a tribal awakening like we do with the sunni awakening in iraq. that's the pact. i was there in 2003. the afghan people don't want the taliban any more than they want -- so there's a way of doing this. we got to be concise. but the real issue is pakistan. we have to deal with them in a combination of ways. force is not the only way to do it. >> is general allen the right man for the job? >> i talked to several commanders to include the cent commander. the question becomes allen is a great leader. i think he understands the military context of what he's doing. he's going to rethink the coin strategy. the counter insurgency strategy. >> lieutenant schaefer, thank you so much. >> thank you. >> moving ahead, next on the rundown, who is hiring the top five companies offering jobs right now. on this day in history, the number one song, 1967, windy by the association.
